Pizza Hut administrators have announced the locations of 68 restaurants which will close after the company became the latest big name dining chain to suffer a downturn
The full scale of the Pizza Hut wipeout on UK high streets has been revealed by an interactive map – with one area to lose seven out of its nine restaurants.
Administrators have announced the locations of 68 restaurants which will close after the company became the latest big name dining chain to suffer a downturn in fortunes.
It will also shut down 11 delivery sites as part of a restructuring which will put 1,210 workers at risk of redundancy.
The closure program will leave just 64 Pizza Hut restaurants open in the UK.
An interactive map of Pizza Hut closures shows how the Greater Manchester region is among the most affected. Search the map here:
There are currently nine Pizza Hut restaurants operating in the region, but seven of them are earmarked for closure, leaving outlets at the Trafford Center and in Manchester city center.
It’s a similar story in Greater London, where nine Pizza Huts will be closed around the outer boroughs leaving just three in central London and one at Bluewater shopping center.
However, the East Midlands has escaped the closure program with restaurants in Lincoln, Nottingham, Mansfield, Thurmaston and Leicester all remaining open.
DC London Pie, the firm running Pizza Hut’s UK dine-in restaurants under a franchise deal, appointed administrators from corporate finance firm FTI on Monday.
American hospitality giant Yum! Brands, which owns the global Pizza Hut business, said it has now bought the UK restaurant operation in a pre-packaged administration deal, saving 64 sites.
Directional Capital took over 139 Pizza Hut restaurants in January 2025, saving 3,000 jobs in the process, after its previous operator Heart with Smart Limited collapsed with debts of almost £40 million to investor Pricoa Capital.
DC London Pie was created by Directional Capital to run Pizza Hut restaurants in the UK. The first Pizza Hut in the UK opened in 1973 in Islington, London. At its height, the chain operated over 260 restaurants nationwide, with 10,000 employees.
Pizza Hut said it will continue to operate across the UK through a mix of company-owned and franchise restaurants, with 351 delivery Huts trading across the UK, Northern Ireland and Ireland in addition to the 64 acquired dine-in sites as a result of the latest deal.
